According to The Bible, 600,000 fighting men set off into the desert without any water or any knowledge of where to find water. Scholars say that if the Israelites numbered 600,000 fighting men, there must have been at least two and a half million Israelites in total, plus their livestock. This is equivalent to quite a large city, even by modern standards. Yet there seems to have only been one time when the Israelites really worried about finding water. On this occasion, God told Moses to smite a rock (Exodus 17:6) and water will come out. Even assuming that enough water was pouring out of the rock, the Bible does not say how two and a half million people could even pass by a small stream of water pouring from a rock in order to quench their thirst. When they moved on from here, availability of water seems no longer to be very noteworthy, and the focus was on the miraculous provision of manna and quails for food.
The Jewish people are descendants of the Israelites.
The israelites were a Jewish race, of people, they were chosenby god at the time of Moses andas his very own chosen people and were saved .
Yes, the chosen people or 'God's chosen people', as said in the Bible, are another name for the Israelites. -S.M.M. ;)
